Based on the calculation results, it explains the magnitude of the coefficient of determination or R Square of 0.297 (0.297 × 100%), this shows that the percentage contribution of the influence of the independent variable social media content on the dependent variable news consumption patterns is 29.7% or the independent variable used in the model is able to explain the variance the news consumption pattern variable was 29.7%, while the remaining 70.3% (100%-29.7%) was influenced by other variables not included in the research model
